I don't think the hang is caused just by loading the file.
And to avoid such risks, we could just call unload-feature.
But in any case, I'd first try the approach proposed by Glenn, and if/when
we bump into a case where "after-load" is too late, we may then consider
a more complex solution. My guess is that this will never be necessary.
